Two childhood friends are playing house—and maybe playing for keeps—in USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke’s funny, sexy, and unpredictable marriage-of-convenience romance.

To save her Tennessee bed-and-breakfast, Sophie Bates needs a fast-cash miracle. Holden McKenzie, her childhood best friend, needs to prove to a prospective employer that he’s a committed man. Their fortunes on the line, Holden proposes…a solution.

He’ll take care of Sophie’s bills if she agrees to a temporary marriage of convenience. And why not? They’re comfortable together, they have fun, and they trust each other. It’s as simple as saying “I do.” But the off-the-cuff wedding has all of Honey Creek talking—and Sophie and Holden realizing that their perfect arrangement is working too well. If they’re not careful, this marriage could turn into a love story.

My Thoughts <3

Fake romances are TOTALLY my jam, and one by one of my favorite authors, I was SO DOWN TO READ THIS BOOK! Holden and Sophie have a chemistry so strong that you can practically see it sizzling between the two of them. They were childhood friends and when they are reunited after years apart, both with their own situations, they are able to come to a solution to help each other- get married!

As mentioned above, these two have major chemistry and also a deep respect for each other that you cannot help but fall for. All in all, it is a fan-freaking-tastic romance that you should read right away! It was a little predictable in certain situations, but the way that the author writes their interactions and feelings makes up for it and I give it 4.5 outta 5 stars! This is the first book into a new series and I am DEFINITELY going to be look out for the next one!

PS: Thank you to Adriana Locke and Social Butterfly PR for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly!
